The 63-year-old actor -- who has appeared in more than 150 films including Life of Pi -- failed a sobriety test and was taken to a local police station for questioning Thursday afternoon. He was detained at the urging of the Paris prosecutor's office, an official speaking on the condition of anonymity told the AP.

Forced to apologize to fellow passengers on an Air France flight in 2011 when he urinated in front of them during takeoff in 2011, the actor crashed his motorcycle in 1998 after riding with a blood-alcohol limit five times over the legal level.
